Tua time!
like reid and sutton not interested in federowicz at all...would be a bad pick imo
CJ is a decent old-school TE. His upside is Fasano-like, imo. Good all-rounder who can be a healthy part of a committe offense but not a matchup problem.
Reid I've looked at a few times and - esp considering he's in a lower level league - he never jumps off the screen at me. I can appreciate he's got a nice all-round game, but I don't see special at all. He's looking like a mid rounder at the latest - I could get Justin Ellis or someone like that for similar or less. I might even get Easley for similar.
Sutton seems to be dropping into nice value range, so he's a consideration depending where you take him. But I've said it before, I see him late off the snap a lot. And he's not the patient, mongoose type that Carradine was last year. He needs to use explosiveness to get to the QB - not good if you leave the platform late.
So, basically, this news underwhelms me distinctly. It's like Jeffy never left. Footsoldiers all.
bang on with fedorowicz...bang on...what the hell do we need that for when they want to give dion sims snaps and expect him to develop as an in line blocker...he's not terrible it just does us no good...we need to complement what we have at tight end get a true size down the seam early win flex guy with large catch radius...not some low upside in line guy who will work the underneath and a soft zone...i already got that in dion sims...it would be a waste pick and a struggle to find snaps for one...
reid i have yet to review tape but hes got some explosive qualities...sutton odd to compare with carradine don;t even play the same position...if u want to see explosive off the snap and downright wrecker look at his 2012 tape when he was max 290...he flat wrecked people and when he got in the back field he finished...no interior dt pass rusher was more of a straight assassine recently than will sutton in 2012...he's carrying bad weight a spare tire even if he comes to the combine south of 300 and he can play at 285 or 290 for ya you got something...miami though i see playing a 4 man nickle pass down front of wake odrick vernon and jordan so i don't know that they will value a initial nickle rush dt undersized as much...when they have their front already set up...might be hard to find snaps...and if no snaps well no bang for your buck
depends on if they get solia back as to what they will value in a dt imo...
What I meant by Carradine is that being patient off the snap is part of his game. Some d-linemen are like that. Upshaw was like that to an extent. Sutton is not slow off the snap to be patient, he's just slow off the snap. Maybe it is just conditioning, maybe not. Sutton in the first is a bad pick, imo. Sutton in the second is OK, Sutton in the third is starting to look like pretty good value.
Any thoughts on niklas hoops?
Added Tre Mason to the list.
